Hard to tell, is there a replaceable lip at the bottom or is it an one piece bumper? Don't think I'd want an one piece bumper without a replaceable lower lip.

I dunno, $3k plus shipping and VAT is almost getting into the oem range. Sure looks hot though, very nice!

Thanks. There is no VAT on exports out of the EU to the US. Unfortunately there is no lip but it doesn't hang quite as low as the porsche bumper. The bumper is actually very sturdy as it wraps under the body and the material is pretty thick. I thought about having some thin skidplates riveted to the bottom of it but i just very rarely scrape it. I have a clear bra on it and the protects it to a certain degree but im still pretty careful. I just know to do the GT2 bumper correctly to function as designed (not just looks) is a $8k proposition. I was just letting people know there are other options for those concerned about aerodynamics as well as looks....

I got the front bumper/lip from Precision Porsche, just sitting in the garage at the moment.
Looking at the rear GT2 wing, there's all kinds of prices for these.

The GMG racing one is $4300.00, with CF top, composite body:

The EVOMS is a similar product, goes for $2999.00:

The AWE tuning goes for $2375.00:

You guys know of any others, or have any reccomendations? I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on this.

Best place to get them is right here. Installed MANY of these. Good prices, great fit. Many places you buy from are just getting them from here BTW....

For the GT2 bumper is it fiberglass or poly?
